I went out walking for six hours on Saturday. Took some pictures:
The potato famine sculpture
This is a memorial to an immigrant ship that was taken over by pirates!
Sign that basically sum’s up Dublin
The Ha’ Penny bridge. The most famous bridge in Dublin. Back in the day you’d have to pay a half a penny toll to cross it.
The Liffy River is lined with anchors dating back to the medieval period.
I’d be dead if it weren’t for these signs (they drive on the other side ya know…)
This is my favorite monument in the city, the O’Connell Monument. Shown here is only one of the four angels that are at the base of the monument. This one is wrestling a snake and if you look closely at her right breast you will see she’s been shot, yep with a real bullet during the revolution. She’s one tough cookie.
